There are many movie, TV, and video game easter eggs in **Honkai: Star Rail ** , the new turn-based RPG by developer HoYoverse (well-known for Genshin Impact ). The new title in the Honkai franchise takes a step aside from the Impact series and weaves a new story that is unrelated to it. During its storytelling process, however, players are encountering multiple references to different pop culture products, spread across various mediums.So far, players have seen Honkai: Star Rail reference popular TV shows, many iconic movies, and even a few award-winning games. While most of them are mere mentions of these products, usually present as dialogue options, a few others are more developed and even relate to a full questl

While Honkai: Star Rail _ might be technically free-to-play, its nature as a gacha game means that players who do spend money may end up getting significantly more mileage out of it. Despite the Slg Game Heroes being a large departure from past HoYoverse titles in terms of gameplay and combat, _Honkai: Star Rail 's monetization remains extremely similar to games like Genshin Impact , with several currencies and systems for players to make sense of, and many of them involving the spending of real-world money. Factoring in aspects like currency farming, character rates, and more, it can be difficult to gauge how "free" Star Rail actually

Some of the most obvious Easter eggs in Honkai: Star Rail are, unsurprisingly, nods to HoYoverse’s other open-world RPG Genshin Impact. One of the first ones that players may encounter is within the northeast area of the Storage Room level in the Herta Space Station: the base glider from Genshin Impact . When examining it, players are met with a description highlighting the wind’s power, which is a clear reference to Mondstadt, the nation of Anemo. Another early reference is a nod to Paimon’s main quote when heading toward locked areas, as exemplified by artist Charliemincer on Twit

The ultimate The Shining Easter egg in Honkai: Star Rail , however, only happens when players interact with all the doors inside the Hotel Corridor. After triggering the last door, as exemplified by Mobile Game on YouTube, players’ screens go black and a text prompt cites that the main character is feeling a presence in the hallway. The next image shows twin girls standing next to each other at the end of the corridor, looking toward the Trailblazer. The girls then invite the protagonist to play with them forever, which is a direct reference to The Shini

Much like Genshin Impact , the main draw of Star Rail is its playable characters, with each one having a unique design, different abilities, and their own place in the story and world of the game. However, while Honkai: Star Rail has several free characters that are provided to players both at the start of the game and at select points throughout the game's progression, the vast majority must be randomly obtained from the game's gacha banners, which is where most of the game's monetization will come into play - meaning that a player who spends money might have a different experience from one who does

This Light Cone does not have the whopping DEF boost that Moment Of Victory does, but it does give the wearer a modest 16 percent DEF boost and increases DMG RES for all allies by eight percent. The best part about this Light Cone is that adorable March 7th and Pom Pom artwork. Of course, the boosts are good,

Luckily, for the most part, Honkai: Star Rail is free-to-play. Stellar Jade Star Rail 's main currency , which can be converted into Warp Passes for the game's gacha system, is frequently rewarded to players for doing in-game quests, puzzles, and exploration, and Warp Passes, while somewhat more infrequent, can also be obtained by leveling characters and passing certain milestones. While the game is playable with the provided free characters and the free gacha pulls afforded by Star Rail 's rewards, however, players who want specific characters, especially the rarer five stars, may find themselves tempted to sp

Additionally, Honkai: Star Rail has plenty of free rewards which will serve non-spending players well in getting through the game. Daily and weekly challenges provide a fair amount of both Stellar Jade and standard Warp Passes, so while players avoid spending money might have less resources at their disposal, pulling for characters is still very much possible, and while the game's several free characters may not be as flashy as characters pulled through gacha, most of them remain fairly effective at their intended roles. However, free players who want specific characters off of limited banners may have to save up for quite a while to guarantee their succ
